I'm looking to get an android tablet and I've narrowed it down to 3. Asus transformer, Acer iconia a500 or Motorola xoom I've chose these 3 as they are fairly cheap and look set to get much cheaper as new tablets come out. The only problem I have is all reviews I read are heavily biased towards an ipad2. I would like some honest opinions from people who have actually used the devices, rooted them installed custom roms and also what apps are like running as I've read apps don't all work at full screen on 10" screens.

Cheers in advance for any advice.
[General Topics] sean is here.:
The Asus Transformer Prime has the best stats, but I think you're referring to the eeePad Transformer in your list (which IMHO looks like crap from the reviews I've read).

From the 3 you listed, I'd go with the Xoom. But seriously, why not just save for a couple more months and get the Asus Transformer Prime. You'll thank yourself later!:D
[General Topics] goatimus:
Did look at them and they look nice but its not a matter of saving I just don't want to spend that much on what is really just a toy for me (can't see it replacing my PC). What I'm more concerned with is the report I read that a lot of apps don't scale up to the big screen. Is this true or was it just another apple fanboy slagging of anything non apple.
[General Topics] Dark lord me:
The whole belief that honeycomb is unfriendly to apps total BS. I have had a Transformer since April and have rooted it and am running Revolver rom and even before i rooted it it was extremely slick. The home screen isn't very good but install ADW EX and you get the best homescreen experience ever. I have over 100 apps on mine and they all work great and look beautiful. You will, of coarse, find some that aren't that great but that happens everywhere.

Now as a transformer owner i can honestly recommend any android tablet to someone ( Who actually knows abut android) and you will enjoy it. I would suggest you get the Prime though because it's much better and you get more for your money. Asus is really great with updates so you shouldn't have to root it for a while

Also also on it being a toy, it can totally replace you destop, you can get the keyboard dock when you want and make it a full on ultrabook
[General Topics] goatimus:
The transformer is my favourite so far in my opinion it looks nice. I love android so its nice to know it runs nice. Thanks for letting me know about the apps it was my main concern. Now which one to chose? Hmmm.....
[General Topics] Dark lord me:
If you are going for first generation tablets the transformer is the way to go but with CES this week you should wait to see what comes out of there
[General Topics] goatimus:
One thing I forgot to ask if I replace my PC can I still perform adb functions for my phone or do I still need windows.
[General Topics] francois36boris:
I also have a OG Transformer, and I like it a lot. It's fast, good looking and the dock is very cool. If you can find it for 300 bucks just buy it.
[General Topics] reeceb73:
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 and I really like it. My wife has an ipad2 and here is my take on these things. The galaxy tab is every bit as good as the ipad in many areas. internet browsing, email, etc. Where it falls behind the ipad is the apps.

My wife has Hbogo on her's, but I cant get it on mine. My wife has directv app which can watch some live tv, my same directv app doesn't have this feature. There are some great apps for the android tablets, but not nearly as many as the ipad2. The android apps don't seem to get all the attention as the ipad's.

I still like my tab a lot and I am hoping the apps will catch up.
[General Topics] KonceptB:
I've owned a Xoom, Galaxy Tab 10.1, and the original Transformer.

If I had to choose between those three I think I would pick the original Transformer by Asus. Best experience I had out of the box.

Galaxy tab 10.1 was a very close second.

Now it is all about the Transformer Prime for me though. All I have to do is find one for sale.
[General Topics] pen.suhl:
HP Touchpad

kidding....but honestly if you can find one for ~$100 it can be quite possibly the best tablet available. Android is quite stable, even though currently its running gingerbread.

But I would wait, like someone said above CES is right around the corner, and who knows, ASUS could be like Sony and drop the price on the prime by $100. But if you are really set on a tablet now, do you really want something that is over a year old.

I would also consider that you take a look at the Tablet S with their recent price drop.
[General Topics] quarlow:
HP TouchPad

Not kidding.

Seriously, take a look at the forum for them, CM7 is coming along, CM9/ICS is progressing, and webOS is solid. At least consider it. 1.2GHz dual core, 1GB RAM, 10" screen, wireless charging dock available. The TouchPad had sold more units than any android tablet. The iPad is the only tablet that sold more units period. The cheaper than dirt price helped, but all those units out there mean there is a large userbase, and plenty of support.

http://www.androidcentral.com/asus-says-bootloader-unlock-tool-coming-gps-hard-yall

so, I know I personally am absolutely 100% enraged to read about this, since we still haven't heard anything about an official ota for NS4G.

Google is ****ing up big time, and they may lose a LARGE chunk of nexus users over this. I may be one of them, too, if they can't fix this problem asap!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borrowedchief:
Ya, it is a bit disturbing.

Well, the work week just started back up for them, so maybe we will hear something in the next couple days?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Sprint says we'll be "among the first" to updates, not "the first".

I'd be amazed if this is Google's doing.

Sprint's website says "It runs Android™ 2.3 (Gingerbread) the latest version of Android for smartphones." They're the ones that are clueopenic, not Google.

Don't get me wrong: I'm plenty annoyed at not getting OTA ICS. It's just that I don't actually expect Sprint to live up to their promises, since this is not something they've ever tended to do in the past. Sprint users go through this with every software update for every platform on every phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp420:
this quote came from sprint community forums. http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/380145#380145

Sprint does NOT provide our update...google does. Google is falling behind, and they need to be held accountable for their screw-ups. Just because they didn't say "NS4G will be the first" does not make it acceptable for 3rd parties to get an update before they can even get off their lazy asses just to push a button for their OFFICIAL FIRST-PARTY USERS. Everything we need is on their server for download, and if devs here can get off their asses top compile this rom, google sure as hell can do the same!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
No. Google is waiting on Sprint, not the other way around.

In addition to providing CDMA drivers, Sprint has to approve the final package that is pushed, and they haven't yet done that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesusice:
Source or GTFO. And we've already got the drivers, I'm using ICS on my NS4G right now. 4g and everything.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp420:
lol...is that why every single file needed to build a

FULL

ics rom is already on the server??

I'm not saying you're wrong, but in my opinion, it does not look like it's sprint's fault. It looks like Google is either lazy about releasing it, or they are too dumb to build a rom that's working properly so it's stuck in pre-release testing. However, this is just my opinion....but as far as actually building/releasing the OTA, that is 100% on google's end. whether or not the authorization is coming/has to come from sprint is another story entirely....the point is, if that is the case, google isn't doing their jobs and telling them to screw themselves so they don't look like the bad guy in this!! It's not sprint who will have the damaged reputation after this is all said & done.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
<shrug> it's the way it's always worked.

This worked in our favor earlier when Sprint okayed deployment of Google Wallet on our devices and GSM users were foaming at the mouth to get it. In those cases, too, it wasn't Google (which has excellent reasons for getting Wallet into as many hands as possible) but the carriers which held up release.

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

No.

What is the connection between having all the files on the server and Sprint's approval of a final release version?

In your earlier quote lifted from another site, the poster was saying the updates are pushed from Google's servers, not Sprints. That's correct. However, they can't just start pushing updates without carrier approval. This is why, for example, T-Mobile got ICS before ATT.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp420:
that was a result of carriers' investment in other companies that developed very similar software to google wallet....exactly the same as when the GN was delayed for verizon because google wanted wallet on their official device and verizon had a coronary about it because they had already backed another company's software that does exactly the same thing.

as for carrier approval, google can only wait so long before they just snap and push the update anyway. carriers can not make the rest of the world wait for an update just because they don't want it released to their devices yet. Google needs to just ***** slap sprint, tell them to shut the hell up, and push the update before this damages their reputation any more than it already has. Like I said, it won't be sprint whose rep is damaged from all of this, just like no one looks towards verizon for the GN delay...the world will blame google, and they aren't even standing up for themselves.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nside:
Sure, they could build ICS for the NS4G but the 4G radio wouldn't work. Drivers aren't part of AOSP.

Also, didn't Google pulled the ICS update for the (tmobile) Nexus S? If that's still true, they're clearly working out the issues with ICS before releasing it to the NS4G, etc.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DannyDroid:
It is most likely *not* Googles doing. I don't know where half of you get these crack pot ideas from that Google or any other OEM is in control over how and when they push an update.

- OEM builds ROM

- OEM submits ROM to carriers (i.e. Sprint branded phone would require Sprint to approve the update).

Carriers can be total dicks about updates and providing OTA. I've seen it all first hand from when I had a Motorola Milestone (Motorola telling us the 2.1 has been built and has gone through testing but they are waiting for carriers to approve them on their networks) we had to waiting months for the updates due to some carriers.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
Driver binaries are on Google's servers for nexus devices. 100% built from source and 4g works just fine.....
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
we are waiting for sprint to approve the new radio that will come with the ota. That is what causes the holdup.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glider010:
maybe Google is still fixing what does not go to ics now and then....maybe xD we can see ics on all nexus ^^
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mstevens:
Precisely. I'm glad you finally see my point that Google can't just push out an update because they want to, but are hampered by needing carrier approval.

---------- Post added at 02:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 PM ----------

When did this start being true?

It's absolutely true that carriers CAN prevent official release of an update for any reason, or for no reason. They've done it many times before and they'll do it again. Sprint has a long track record of doing exactly this.

You have an awfully lot to learn about how contracts work.

If I run a massive business and another massive business violates my contract with them (for example, pushes an unapproved update to what I think of as "my" devices irrespective of the beliefs or desires of my subscribers), many lawyers are going to be fed and I will expect a massive transfer of assets from that other company to mine.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] takenone:
mstevens is dead on. Sprint will not allow the push of an ota until they can be sure this update won't toast peoples phones, and for the people in the world that have a nxs4g and don't do modding, if the update is broken, they can't just fix what Google's update did. My brother has the GSM version, and received the update, and honestly were not missing anything. The user made roms are already becoming superior builds anyway. We will eventually get the update, I for one am glad sprint said no at the moment though, I would hate to waste my time on a broken ota lol
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp420:
lol...too many people to quote you all, so I'm gonna do my best to answer everyone :)

Ok, I understand how contracts work. My point is this: yes, google has a contract with sprint (or any other carrier, for that matter) to provide radios, wimax drivers, what-have-you, and I understand that if sprint won't sign, there's not much the manufacturer can do...I get that. But my biggest concern with all of this is that google is not flexing their muscles. They have made a guarantee to their customers (not explicit, but still implied) that they would provide ALL NEXUS UPDATES in a timely manner. Sprint is now holding google back from seeing this implied promise carried through, and the fact that other manufacturers are already pushing full ota updates now makes google look bad (grounds for a lawsuit).

I understand that if google were to break that contract by circumventing sprint by releasing the update anyway, they could be sued...I get that. However, google could also counter-sue for making customers wait an unreasonable amount of time for an update that is, by all rights, a "god-given right" to all nexus users prior to anyone else getting it.

Now let's talk about how many people use an NS4G to develop software that they get paid top develop. By sprint not releasing an official update, they are now inhibiting developers from doing business, and therefore they are taking money out of people's pockets. Yes, I know this last example is far-fetched a little bit, but honestly, it's really not all that far off. Yeah, people can just compile aosp themselves, and if they are truly developers, they should know how to do that....but let's say they are working on one particular app that is exclusive for sprint users, and they want to make sure it will run properly on sprint's network via an ICS handset....oh, wait...they can't because sprint are a bunch of lazy pieces of **** who won't sign. This is grounds for class-action, IMHO.

I may not be a lawyer, but it's blatantly obvious to me that if sprint holds out long enough, they are absolutely 100% vulnerable to class-action suits...and maybe even a suit from google, as well. Let's face it, no one but sprint & google execs really know the terms of the contract, but for all we know, it IS in the contract to provide timely updates. If this is the case, I hope someone gets sued like a SOB for this delay, because it's unacceptable!!!!!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The111:
I suggest that this LARGE chunk of nexus users may be better served by one of the many other smartphone mfrs who provided a pure ICS update (i.e. no BS extra UI layer and no bloat) over the holiday. Which one will you choose? Oh, wait.

Really. You want a lawsuit, because a bunch of software developers wouldn't work at your whim over the nation's biggest holiday?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hp420:
actually, since the drivers, kernel, etc. was all pushed to google's update servers WELL over a week before christmas, they wouldn't have been working during the holiday at all to get it pushed to NS4g...they just had to click a few buttons....something I've done a few hundred thousand times in the last 5 minutes.

BTW, no need to be a smartass about it. if I want to switch from nexus to get a pure android ui, I can always just root and modify the ota to have a stock theme. So now what do you have to say about that, smartass??? Oh wait...

tool.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The111:
You're making multiple assumptions. You assume that by the existence of particular source files on a particular server, you know what Google's stance as to the public release candidacy of a compiled package is. Please explain why you believe this. There are only two ways we could know such a thing:

1) Google publicly declares it (i.e. this compiled package IS ready for public use... or vice versa)

2) Google actually pushes the compiled package (in the absence of such an action, the logical assumption to make is that they are not ready to do such a thing yet, for their own reasons... i.e. there is still something else they need to do. NOT that they are "too lazy/stupid to push a few buttons")

You're right, the sarcasm is 100% optional. It's an option that I quite enjoy though. I won't, however, stoop to personal attacks.

How about this. Sarcasm removed for you, I will ask the question that was clearly evident in my last post. If you decide to "leave Google" because of your discontent, which handset vendor will you turn to? Who do you believe is a better option? Who will give you a pure Android update in a shorter timespan? I am genuinely (no sarcasm) interested!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgodfrey11:
They started to push the update to the GSM phones and then paused the update for the rest of the phones, because of some Nexus S's getting an update that had too many flaws. Some worked, some didn't, so no one else is getting the update until Google can figure out why some didn't work.
